1950s Printed Floral Silky Rayon Emma Domb Dress

This Emma Domb dress is just so pretty and gorgeous I am in love! It is really a beautiful and early example of the kind of dreamy dresses the company made. The print on the silky rayon is a lovely mix of roses and greenery that covers the entire surface. I love how the pink and greens pop off the backdrop and parts of the fabric look to have been hand painted. The bodice is very pretty with a simple curved and crossed cut that is fitted to the bust and shows off and creates curves. The waist is defined and the seamed there is set on a pretty curve. The skirt is amazing and quite full with lots and lots of fabric and a layer of tulle underneath to give it that shape. I used no extra crinolines! To finish there are two pretty bows that sit atop each hip at the waist. This little extra touch is so pretty and feminine - I love it. Really a pretty and wonderful fifties dress. Excellent condition.

Fully lined in a white silky rayon through the bodice with an attached tulle inner skirt. Hand finished. Closes with a painted metal zipper.
